Moved a stand today where a northern red oak started dropping last week. I flushed 50 or so turkeys when I went in to hunt this afternoon. Since no one is putting corn out in this area I started to call turkeys when they started talking. I had them really going, yelps, purrs, gobbles, kee kees... I heard running and grunting and look up and two deer, a buck and a doe run in under the oak tree 20 yards away. I like me some doe backs straps, and with bonus antlerless tags in my wallet, it's on!!!
The doe finally got quartered perfect, I drew my 50 pound Herway longbow, anchored and sent my carbon express arrrow tipped with a razorbak 3 into the sweet pocket. She mule kicked and tore off with the arrow sticking in stopped by the off side shoulder.
The turkeys were still yaking away, I went back to callin and had 30 hens, jakes and jennies all around me fighting, strutting, and I never could get drawn, they never stayed still.
Anyway, here's the doe:
